Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin has accepted an invitation to speak at next month’s Conservative Political Action Conference, CPAC.
“We are pleased to again welcome Governor Sarah Palin to CPAC in March,” said American Conservative Union Chairman Al Cardenas in a statement to Breitbart. “Governor Palin electrified the crowd to 2013, and we are thrilled to welcome her back this year.”
CPAC is set for March 6-8 at the Gaylord National Resort and Convention Center on the outskirts of Washington, D.C. Other scheduled speakers: Sen. Marco Rubio, Rep. Paul Ryan, Gov. Bobby Jindal, Sen. Ted Cruz, Sen. Rand Paul and Gov. Chris Christie.
CPAC, one of the largest conservative draws in the nation, is also a frequent testing ground for future presidential candidates.
And Ms. Palin did just tease “Inside Edition” with a possible 2016 run at the highest office, Politico reported.
Her statement, when asked about a White House run: “I think if anyone is asked by enough people, if enough people have that faith that you’re willing and able to put the country on the right path, I think that person should absolutely consider it and make sure it’s good with family.”
